A dish from Rusconi's American Kitchen

Classic breakfast foods, wood-fired Chihuahuan flavors, American cuisine

Thursday, February 19 at 7 p.m.

In this episode of “Check, Please! Arizona,” we’ll explore dishes from our favorite Arizona restaurants, including classic breakfast foods, carefully crafted regional American foods and Chihuahuan cuisines.

At Joe’s Diner, guests on “Check, Please! Arizona” order up the “best pancakes in Arizona” and indulge in homemade biscuits and gravy. The wood grill takes centerstage at Rusconi’s American Kitchen. Prime meats to seafood and even craft cocktails all feel the fire. And Chihuahuan flavors come alive at Cocina Chiwas where they grill everything from the corn for wood-fired elote to pork for tacos carnitas.

Whether you are a beginner or seasoned chef, Arizona PBS has you covered. Find fun recipes for kids or parties, watch the latest PBS cooking shows, learn about locally owned Arizona restaurants and more.
